NAICSSector 33
U.S. imports of electronic computers (NAICS 334111) totaled $31.1B in April 2026, traded with 88 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataAutomatic data-processing machines — desktops, laptops, servers, and tablets classified as computers — represent one of the highest-volume import categories in US trade, with supply chains heavily anchored in Asia. NAICS 334111 corresponds closely to HTS chapter 84 subheadings for ADP machines, and Chinese-origin units in this category have faced Section 301 tariff exposure, driving sourcing shifts toward Vietnam, Mexico, and other manufacturing hubs. Classification disputes in this category often center on whether a device qualifies as a general-purpose computer or a specialized machine, a distinction that can significantly alter duty treatment.

CBP looks primarily at whether the device is freely programmable, capable of executing a user-supplied program, and able to perform a variety of computations without hardware modification. Devices designed for a single dedicated function — such as a gaming console or a specialized industrial controller — may not qualify as ADP machines and could be classified under a different chapter with a different duty rate.
Section 301 tariffs on Chinese-origin computers prompted many manufacturers to expand or shift final assembly to Vietnam, Mexico, India, and other countries. However, country-of-origin rules require substantial transformation, so importers must verify that assembly operations in the new location are sufficient to confer non-Chinese origin before claiming a different tariff treatment.
